Some Functors on the Category of Sheaves Some Functors on the Category of Sheaves Brian Shin March 1, 2017 Abstract In this talk, we’d like to study some functors on categories of sheaves that are induced by continuous maps. More precisely, we will see that a map p : Y X of schemes will induce several functors between ! Sh(Yet´ ) and Sh(Xet´ ). We’ll be studying properties of these functors and relationships among them. Most of the results of this talk can be generalized to the context of continuous maps between sites. Everything in this talk comes from I.8 of [1] § 1 Background on the Category of Sheaves Recall that X is the full subcategory of Sch/X consisting of etale´ morphisms U X. The category X et´ ! et´ comes equipped a Grothendieck topology, the etale´ topology. We can then form the category Pre(Xet´ ) of presheaves of abelian groups, together with the reflective subcategory Sh(Xet´ ) consisting of sheaves of abelian groups. (A subcategory is reflective if the inclusion functor admits a left adjoint.) Finally, recall that the category of (pre)sheaves on a site with values in an abelian category is again an abelian category. This is essentially due to the fact that short exact sequences can be computed stalkwise. 2 Direct Images Since the pullback of an etale´ morphism is always an etale´ morphism, we can push presheaves through morphisms. More precisely, we have the following definition. Definition 2.1. Let p : Y X be a morphism of schemes, and let be a presheaf on Y . For any object ! F et´ U X of Xet´ , we can define p (U)= (U X Y). For any morphism U V in Xet´ , we get a morphism ! ⇤F F ⇥ ! U X Y V X Y, which induces a morphism p (V) p (U). This data determines a presheaf p ⇥ ! ⇥ ⇤F ! ⇤F ⇤F on X called the direct image of along p : Y X. et´ F ! Proposition 2.2. If is a sheaf, then so is p . F ⇤F The direct image construction gives us a functor p : Pre(Yet´ ) Pre(Xet´ ). This functor is evidently ⇤ ! exact, since exactness is checked at the level of open sets. The fact that Sh(Yet´ ) is a reflective subcategory implies the following proposition. Proposition 2.3. The functor p : Sh(Y´et) Sh(X´et) is left exact. ⇤ ! Example 2.4 (Failure of Right Exactness). Consider the a k-scheme a : X Spec k for some algebraically ! closed field k. The functor Sh((Spec k) ) Ab sending to (Spec k) is an equivalence of categories, et´ ! F F and under this equivalence, the direct image functor a : Sh(Xet´ ) Sh((Spec k)et´ ) is naturally isomorphic to the global sections functor, which is not generally right⇤ exact. ! Example 2.5 (Skyscraper Sheaf). Let i : x X be a geometric point. We again have that Sh(x ) is equivalent ! et´ to the category of abelian groups. Under this equivalence, the direct image i G of an abelian group G is then the skyscraper sheaf Gx at x. ⇤ 1 If we have a geometric point i : y Y and a morphism p : Y X, then we get a geometric point ! ! x = p(y)=p i : y X. If we have a sheaf on Yet´ , then the universal property of colimits induces a canonical map ◦ ! F (p )x y. ⇤F !F In general, this map is neither injective nor surjective. The following proposition sheds some light on this situation. Proposition 2.6. (a) Let p : V X be an open immersion and let be a sheaf on V . Then ! F ´et x if x V (p )x = F 2 ⇤F ? if x V. ⇢ 62 (b) Let p : Z X be a closed immersion and let be a sheaf on Z . Then ! F ´et x if x Z (p )x = F 2 ⇤F 0 if x Z. ⇢ 62 (c) Let p : Y X be a finite map and let be a sheaf on Y . Then ! F ´et d(y) (p )x = ⇤ y F y x F M7! where d(y) is the separable degree of k(y) over k(x). In particular, if p is an ´etalemap of degree d between varieties over an algebraically closed field, then d (p )x = . ⇤F Fx Corollary 2.7. If p : Y X is finite or a closed immersion, then the functor p : Sh(Y´et) Sh(X´et) is exact. ! ⇤ ! The following examples are a theme and variations. The first comes from topology, where sheaves can be pushed forward along continuous maps as one would imagine. Example 2.8. Let X R2 be the open disk of radius 1 centered at the origin, let U = X (0, 0) , and let ⇢ −{ } i : U X be the inclusion. Let be the locally constant sheaf on U corresponding to a p (U, u)-module ! F 1 F, where u U is some basepoint. (Recall that p1(U, u) = Z, so a p1(U, u)-module is the same thing as a 1 2 ⇠ Z[t, t− ]-module.) Then p1(U,u) (i )(0,0) = F , ⇤F the elements of F fixed by p1(U, u). Example 2.9. Let X = A1 for some algebraically closed field k, let U = X 0 , and let i : U X be the k −{ } ! open immersion. Let be the locally constant sheaf on U corresponding to a p (U, u)-module F, where F 1 u U is some geometric point. (Recall that p (U, u) = Z.) Then ! 1 ⇠ p1(U,u) (i )0 = F b , ⇤F the elements of F fixed by p1(U, u). Example 2.10. Let X = Spec R for some Henselian discrete valuation ring R, let U = Spec K where K is the field of fractions of R, and let i : U X be the inclusion. Let be the locally constant sheaf on U ! F corresponding to a p (U, u)-module F, where u U is the geometric point corresponding to K , Ksep. 1 ! ! (Recall that p (U, u) = Gal(Ksep/K).) Let I p (U, u) be the subgroup of elements acting trivially on the 1 ⇠ ✓ 1 residue field of R. (That is, I is the inertia group.) Then I (i )x = F , ⇤F the elements of F fixed by p (U, u), where x X is the unique closed point. 1 ! We record here a result about ”functoriality” of the direct image. Proposition 2.11. If we have morphisms f : Z Y and p : Y X of schemes, then we have (p f) = p f . ! ! ◦ ⇤ ⇤ ◦ ⇤ 2 3 Inverse Image Let p : Y X be a morphism of schemes and let be a presheaf on X . We can define a presheaf on ! F et´ F 0 Y , called the inverse image of , by et´ F 0(V)=lim (U), F F ! where the colimit is taken over the collection of commutative diagrams V U (1) Y p X with U X etale.´ Constructing the inverse image presheaf is functorial, yielding a functor ( ) : Pre(X ) ! − 0 et´ ! Pre(Yet´ ). If we fill in the above commutative square with the appropriate pullback diagram, we get V ! U Y U ⇥X Y p X If we have a presheaf on Yet´ , then this second diagram implies that we have natural bijective correspon- dences between the followingG collections: morphisms , • F 0 !G morphisms (U) (V) for every commutative diagram 1 for all diagrams compatible in a suitable • way, and F !G morphisms p . • F! ⇤G In other words, we have an adjunction ( )0 : Pre(Xet´ ) ⌦ Pre(Yet´ ) : p . − ⇤ If we take to be a sheaf on X , then it is not generally true that will be a sheaf on Y . To remedy F et´ F 0 et´ this, we can sheafify in order to get a sheaf p on Y . This yields a functor p : Sh(X ) Sh(Y ). For ⇤F et´ ⇤ et´ ! et´ every sheaf on Y , we have a sequence of natural bijections G et´ HomSh(Y )(p⇤ , ) = HomPre(Y )( 0, ) = HomPre(Y )( , p )=HomSh(Y )( , p ) et´ F G ⇠ et´ F G ⇠ et´ F ⇤G et´ F ⇤G Thus, the adjunction above then gets upgraded to an adjunction p⇤ : Sh(Xet´ ) ⌦ Sh(Yet´ ) : p . ⇤ Proposition 3.1.

However, corollary 3.4 tells us that it is also left exact. Perhaps the functor p⇤ also admits a left adjoint? Yes! We will construct one in the special case that p : Y X is an open immersion. ! 3 Definition 4.1. Let j : U X be an open immersion. Let be a presheaf on U . For every etale´ map !

We will assume that all categories are small, i.e. the class of objects Ob(C) in a category C is a set. A small category can be defined by two sets Mor(C) and Ob(C) together with two maps s, t : Mor(C) → Ob(C) defined by the source and the target of a morphism. There is a section e : Ob(C) → Mor(C) for both maps defined by the identity morphism. We identify Ob(C) with its image under e. The composition of morphisms is a map c : Mor(C) ×s,t Mor(C) → Mor(C). There are obvious properties of the maps (s, t, e, c) expressing the axioms of associativity and the identity of a category. For any A, B ∈ Ob(C) we denote −1 −1 by MorC(A, B) the subset s (A) ∩ t (B) and we denote by idA the element e(A) ∈ MorC(A, A).

  • Representations of Semisimple Lie Algebras in Prime Characteristic and the Noncommutative Springer Resolution
    Annals of Mathematics 178 (2013), 835{919 http://dx.doi.org/10.4007/annals.2013.178.3.2 Representations of semisimple Lie algebras in prime characteristic and the noncommutative Springer resolution By Roman Bezrukavnikov and Ivan Mirkovic´ To Joseph Bernstein with admiration and gratitude Abstract We prove most of Lusztig's conjectures on the canonical basis in homol- ogy of a Springer fiber. The conjectures predict that this basis controls numerics of representations of the Lie algebra of a semisimple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. We check this for almost all characteristics. To this end we construct a noncom- mutative resolution of the nilpotent cone which is derived equivalent to the Springer resolution. On the one hand, this noncommutative resolution is closely related to the positive characteristic derived localization equiva- lences obtained earlier by the present authors and Rumynin. On the other hand, it is compatible with the t-structure arising from an equivalence with the derived category of perverse sheaves on the affine flag variety of the Langlands dual group. This equivalence established by Arkhipov and the first author fits the framework of local geometric Langlands duality. The latter compatibility allows one to apply Frobenius purity theorem to deduce the desired properties of the basis. We expect the noncommutative counterpart of the Springer resolution to be of independent interest from the perspectives of algebraic geometry and geometric Langlands duality. Contents 0.

  • Topics in Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry, Homological Algebra and K-Theory
    Topics in Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry, Homological Algebra and K-Theory Introduction This text is based on my lectures delivered at the School on Algebraic K-Theory and Applications which took place at the International Center for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) in Trieste during the last two weeks of May of 2007. It might be regarded as an introduction to some basic facts of noncommutative algebraic geometry and the related chapters of homological algebra and (as a part of it) a non-conventional version of higher K-theory of noncommutative 'spaces'. Arguments are mostly replaced by sketches of the main steps, or references to complete proofs, which makes the text an easier reading than the ample accounts on different topics discussed here indicated in the bibliography. Lecture 1 is dedicated to the first notions of noncommutative algebraic geometry { preliminaries on 'spaces' represented by categories and morphisms of 'spaces' represented by (isomorphism classes of) functors. We introduce continuous, affine, and locally affine morphisms which lead to definitions of noncommutative schemes and more general locally affine 'spaces'. The notion of a noncommutative scheme is illustrated with important examples related to quantized enveloping algebras: the quantum base affine spaces and flag varieties and the associated quantum D-schemes represented by the categories of (twisted) quantum D-modules introduced in [LR] (see also [T]). Noncommutative projective 'spaces' introduced in [KR1] and more general Grassmannians and flag varieties studied in [KR3] are examples of smooth locally affine noncommutative 'spaces' which are not schemes. In Lecture 2, we recover some fragments of geometry behind the pseudo-geometric picture outlined in the first lecture.

  • Lecture 18: April 15 Direct Images and Coherence. Last Time, We Defined
    89 Lecture 18: April 15 Direct images and coherence. Last time, we defined the direct image functor (for right D-modules) as the composition L op DX Y op Rf op b ⌦ ! b 1 ⇤ b D (DX ) D (f − DY ) D (DY ) f+ where f : X Y is any morphism between nonsingular algebraic varieties. We also ! showed that g+ f+ ⇠= (g f)+. Today, our first◦ task is to◦ prove that direct images preserve quasi-coherence and, in the case when f is proper, coherence. The definition of the derived category b op D (DX )didnot include any quasi-coherence assumptions. We are going to denote b op b op by Dqc(DX ) the full subcategory of D (DX ), consisting of those complexes of right DX -modules whose cohomology sheaves are quasi-coherent as OX -modules. Recall that we included the condition of quasi-coherence into our definition of algebraic b op D-modules in Lecture 10. Similarly, we denote by Dcoh (DX ) the full subcategory b op of D (DX ), consisting of those complexes of right DX -modules whose cohomology sheaves are coherent DX -modules (and therefore quasi-coherent OX -modules). This b op category is of course contained in Dqc(DX ). Theorem 18.1. Let f : X Y be a morphism between nonsingular algebraic ! b op b op varieties. Then the functor f+ takes Dqc(DX ) into Dqc(DY ). When f is proper, b op b op it also takes Dcoh (DX ) into Dcoh (DY ). We are going to deduce this from the analogous result for OX -modules. Recall that if F is a quasi-coherent OX -module, then the higher direct image sheaves j R f F are again quasi-coherent OY -modules.

  • THE FUNDAMENTAL THEOREMS of HIGHER K-THEORY We Now Restrict Our Attention to Exact Categories and Waldhausen Categories, Where T
    CHAPTER V THE FUNDAMENTAL THEOREMS OF HIGHER K-THEORY We now restrict our attention to exact categories and Waldhausen categories, where the extra structure enables us to use the following types of comparison the- orems: Additivity (1.2), Cofinality (2.3), Approximation (2.4), Resolution (3.1), Devissage (4.1), and Localization (2.1, 2.5, 5.1 and 7.3). These are the extensions to higher K-theory of the corresponding theorems of chapter II. The highlight of this chapter is the so-called “Fundamental Theorem” of K-theory (6.3 and 8.2), comparing K(R) to K(R[t]) and K(R[t,t−1]), and its analogue (6.13.2 and 8.3) for schemes. §1. The Additivity theorem If F ′ → F → F ′′ is a sequence of exact functors F ′,F,F ′′ : B→C between two exact categories (or Waldhausen categories), the Additivity Theorem tells us when ′ ′′ the induced maps K(B) → K(C) satisfy F∗ = F∗ + F∗ . To state it, we need to introduce the notion of a short exact sequence of functors, which was mentioned briefly in II(9.1.8). Definition 1.1. (a) If B and C are exact categories, we say that a sequence F ′ → F → F ′′ of exact functors and natural transformations from B to C is a short exact sequence of exact functors, and write F ′ ֌ F ։ F ′′, if 0 → F ′(B) → F (B) → F ′′(B) → 0 is an exact sequence in C for every B ∈B. (b) If B and C are Waldhausen categories, we say that F ′ ֌ F ։ F ′′ is a short exact sequence, or a cofibration sequence of exact functors if each F ′(B) ֌ F (B) ։ F ′′(B) is a cofibration sequence and if for every cofibration A ֌ B in B, the evident ′ map F (A) ∪F ′(A) F (B) ֌ F (B) is a cofibration in C.

  • A CATEGORICAL INTRODUCTION to SHEAVES Contents 1
    A CATEGORICAL INTRODUCTION TO SHEAVES DAPING WENG Abstract. Sheaf is a very useful notion when defining and computing many different cohomology theories over topological spaces. There are several ways to build up sheaf theory with different axioms; however, some of the axioms are a little bit hard to remember. In this paper, we are going to present a \natural" approach from a categorical viewpoint, with some remarks of applications of sheaf theory at the end. Some familiarity with basic category notions is assumed for the readers. Contents 1. Motivation1 2. Definitions and Constructions2 2.1. Presheaf2 2.2. Sheaf 4 3. Sheafification5 3.1.

Motivation In many occasions, we may be interested in algebraic structures defined over local neigh- borhoods. For example, a theory of cohomology of a topological space often concerns with sets of maps from a local neighborhood to some abelian groups, which possesses a natural Z-module struture. Another example is line bundles (either real or complex): since R or C are themselves rings, the set of sections over a local neighborhood forms an R or C-module. To analyze this local algebraic information, mathematians came up with the notion of sheaves, which accommodate local and global data in a natural way. However, there are many fashion of introducing sheaves; Tennison [2] and Bredon [1] have done it in two very different styles in their seperate books, though both of which bear the name \Sheaf Theory".

  • The Six Grothendieck Operations on O-Minimal Sheaves
    THE SIX GROTHENDIECK OPERATIONS ON O-MINIMAL SHEAVES MARIO´ J. EDMUNDO AND LUCA PRELLI Abstract. In this paper we develop the formalism of the Grothendieck six operations on o-minimal sheaves. The Grothendieck formalism allows us to obtain o-minimal versions of: (i) derived projection formula; (ii) universal coefficient formula; (iii) derived base change formula; (iv) K¨unnethformula; (v) local and global Verdier duality. 1. Introduction The study of o-minimal structures ([16]) is the analytic part of model theory which deals with theories of ordered, hence topological, structures satisfying cer- tain tameness properties. It generalizes piecewise linear geometry ([16, Chapter 1, x7]), semi-algebraic geometry ([4]) and globally sub-analytic geometry ([36], also called finitely sub-analytic in [15]) and it is claimed to be the formalization of Grothendieck's notion of tame topology (topologie mod´er´ee).See [16] and [18]. The most striking successes of this model-theoretic point of view of sub-analytic geometry include, on the one hand, an understanding of the behavior at infinity of certain important classes of sub-analytic sets as in Wilkie's ([55]) as pointed out by Bierstone and Milman [3], and on the other hand, the recent, somehow surprising, first unconditional proof of the Andr´e-Oortconjecture for mixed Shimura varieties expressible as products of curves by Pila [45] following previous work also using o-minimality by Pila and Zanier ([46]), Pila and Wilkie ([47]) and Peterzil and Starchenko ([43]).

  • Talk 3: Review of Constructible Sheaves and Operations on Sheaves
    Talk 3: Review of constructible sheaves and operations on sheaves Good resources for the material presented today include [KS13], [Dim04], [Ive86], and [NZ09]. 3.1 Constructible sheaves Throughout this section, X will be a closed, real analytic manifold of dimension n, unless otherwise noted. As indicated by the name, constructible sheaves are those that we can build from very simple pieces using relatively simple methods. We start with the simplest possible sheaf (of C-modules) on X, which is the constant sheaf CX . This is the sheafification of Id CX (U) = C; (V,! U) 7! (C −! C) for open sets V ⊂ U ⊂ X. Notice that for any other sheaf F on X we have an obvious map CX × F ! F; defined by the fact that F(U) is a C-module for each U ⊂ X. This motivates the notation mod(CX ) for sheaves on X. Also note that we have a constant sheaf MX 2 mod(CX ) for each M 2 mod(C). Next, we allow ourselves to patch constant sheaves together, perhaps with monodromy. A locally constant sheaf is a sheaf F 2 mod(CX ) such that each x 2 X admits an open neighborhood U ⊂ X for which FjU is a constant sheaf. Example 4. Let π : Y ! X be a finite-sheeted covering space with fiber F . We define a sheaf F by assigning F(U) = ChΓ(π : Y ! U)i; with the obvious restriction maps. Given x 2 X, we can choose an open neighborhood U ⊂ X such that π−1(U) ' U, so Γ(π : Y ! U) ' F .

This problem can be fixed by working in the derived⌦ category; in fact, Sato, who⇤ founded algebraic analysis, independently invented the theory of derived categories for his needs. Derived categories. Let me very briefly review some basic facts. Let X be a topological space, and RX a sheaf of (maybe noncommutative) rings on X.We denote by Mod(RX ) the category of (sheaves of) left RX -modules; this is an abelian category. Note that right RX -modules are the same thing as left modules over the op opposite ring RX . We use the notation b D (RX ) for the derived category of cohomologically bounded complexes of left RX -modules. The objects of this category are complexes of left RX -modules, with the property that only finitely many of the cohomology sheaves are nonzero.

    CONTRAHERENT COSHEAVES LEONID POSITSELSKI Abstract. Contraherent cosheaves are globalizations of cotorsion (or similar) modules over commutative rings obtained by gluing together over a scheme. The category of contraherent cosheaves over a scheme is a Quillen exact category with exact functors of infinite product. Over a quasi-compact semi-separated scheme or a Noetherian scheme of finite Krull dimension (in a different version—over any lo- cally Noetherian scheme), it also has enough projectives. We construct the derived co-contra correspondence, meaning an equivalence between appropriate derived cat- egories of quasi-coherent sheaves and contraherent cosheaves, over a quasi-compact semi-separated scheme and, in a different form, over a Noetherian scheme with a dualizing complex. The former point of view allows us to obtain an explicit con- struction of Neeman’s extraordinary inverse image functor f ! for a morphism of quasi-compact semi-separated schemes f : X −→ Y . The latter approach provides an expanded version of the covariant Serre–Grothendieck duality theory and leads to Deligne’s extraordinary inverse image functor f ! (which we denote by f +) for a morphism of finite type f between Noetherian schemes. Semi-separated Noetherian stacks, affine Noetherian formal schemes, and ind-affine ind-schemes (together with the noncommutative analogues) are briefly discussed in the appendices.
